An Organized Space Fosters an Organized Mind!

Help me give my students an organized classroom that allows them to better access all the resources I can provide. I want to fully stock each cart for each group, rather than one congested location in the room.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

I want to make my students more self sufficient and make it easy for them to independently solve their issues. I want to fully stock the rolling carts with chargers, paper, pens, Kleenex, and other classroom supplies and center them in their group circles. Students, especially ELLs, students with physical disabilities, and students with anxiety, will sometimes go without because they are too self-conscious to ask for supplies or walk across the room to access materials. Additionally, I want to use the felt hexagons to create a student work wall that won't leave holes in the wall and/or to help display bookish art for the classroom library.

My students deserve a classroom that is well organized and easy to access.

An organized and orderly space facilitates organization and ordered thinking which is necessary at any age, but especially at the 12th grade year when so much is happening in their lives. My goal for next year is to facilitate agency, encourage independence, and model good organizational habits and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
